Aerification Is Done, Now The Work Begins

Yesterday the aerification along with the drill and fill was completed ... now the real work begins.  Today, we will be excess sand removal, green fertilization and start damage repair from the aerification process.  Believe it or not it takes longer to remove excess sand from the greens than it done to aerify the green.
6's Green This Morning
Most of the greens fared quite well for the transition aerification and will recover nicely.  The excess sand removal is going well and recovering is around the corner.
9's Green This Morning
We have started minor repairs on the damaged areas and this will continue until completed.  But the weaker greens 11 - 13 which had overseeding issues that were overcome in November face a longer recovery road.  We will start sod repairs on 12 tomorrow.

12's Green -- Repair is Much Needed
The good news is that all of the bermudagrass is doing just fine.  The Poa Triv on the other hand is gone.
